I should be at the gym right now, but would rather stall, so there – a little Sunday morning snark:
For the first time in American history a high-ranking State Department official caroused with prostitutes. Unfortunately for him, he’s not a Democrat, and the prostitutes are not male.
Show the Dem Cong your support.
Somebody tell that woman to shut up. Her fake drawl alone would be enough give Kramer seizures.
I bet his neighbors are starting to get worried.
Israel did’t make it to Nassau Hall yesterday.
The NYT’s idea is to keep telling the Iraqis the NYT doesn’t believe they’re worth the trouble. Maybe they should hire Omar to explain it to them.
Since Fidel’s always been reluctant to speak for himself, now Evo’s telling us Fidel will be back on Tuesday, but I rather rent the video instead.

The Tobias/Frank analogy you just drew, while nice and flip, surely misses the point. I’d be quite surprised if Frank were an “abstinence” supporter; indeed, it wouldn’t surprise me either if he took a libertarian view about prostitution, too.
But Tobias is the Administration’s tool in Africa, to ensure that efforts to contain the spread of HIV and AIDS don’t, in some oblique way, send the message that the US government thinks non-procreative sex is “OK.”
So there’s a certain relevance — oh, we’ll call it irony — to Tobias getting caught.
Of course, abstinence proponent that he is, I suppose his defense has more plausibility than it otherwise might — surely if anyone would pay a prostitute not to have sex with him . . .
